Yes you have. There's a couple of characters who do very large cut and paste posts who essentially have stated just such a self-imposed justification or moral obligation to counter what they see as negative/inaccurate posts.
"On the fence" would be a fairly accurate assesment of where I've historically been sitting, with a slight negative bent not entirely unreasonable objectively given the difficulties IXR has experienced as reflected in the SP.

However, while I've been justifiably negative about elements of past performance, I have never disparaged management though agreed with others posters who have not unreasonably question certain remunerations.

I understand where some might take exception to me; however, as an investor and fellow member of HC, I am entitled to share my view and analysis and question hyperbole and misrepresentations of reality when exceeds a bit of excitement over some modicum of progress, or cite articles out of context or relevence to reality. After all, some folk do come here seeking info/advice. Issues like mocking me for posts over subs and like are disingenuous because I were merely replying to others posts about subs. Whatever the future maybe in regard to IXR sale that benefit from these subs, given the lead time required of subs, implying immediate benefit from the proposed subs (which they effectively do imply) is patently specious. If someone else wants to talk geo-politcs, why cannot I? To be fair, I actually have a tertiary qualification that somewhat qualifies me in that regard, and have actually agreed with one principle detractor in some of his like thinking posts in this regard.

And, yes, I've been moderated several times and suspended once for having an acerbic wit in my defence from specious attacks. Eh, I can sometimes have a sense of humour when I feel assertive towards my antagonists.

Anyhow, Golf, I remain interested in your typically thoughtful and objective posts... and may continue to be inclined towards amusing myself with others who are often far less so in their, um, ummm, what ever that is they do.
